Definitions
- Conversations within contact centers are typically more structured than everyday speech.
- the contact center conversations may contain a mixture of free conversation and structured speech.
- Structured speech is sequences that have a higher repetition rate than free speech.
- Structured speech may include scripts that are read word-for-word by agents, computer generated voice mail messages, interactive voice response (IVR) generated speech, and figures of speech.
- a method for determining structured speech may include receiving a transcript of an audio recording created by a text-to-speech communication processing system. Thereafter, analyzing text in the transcript to determine repetitions within the text, where the repetitions being indicative of structured speech. From the repetitions, a duration distribution of the repetitions may be determined to ascertain a first type of structured speech.
- the first type of structured speech many be interactive voice response (IVR) generated speech.
- a length of the repetitions may be determined to ascertain a second type of structured speech.
- the second type of structured speech may be scripts spoken by, e.g., agents in the contact center.
- a method for converting speech to text in a speech analytics system may include receiving audio data containing speech made up of sounds from an audio source, processing the sounds with a phonetic module resulting in symbols corresponding to the sounds, and processing the symbols with a language module and occurrence table resulting in text.
- the method also may include determining a probability of correct translation for each word in the text, comparing the probability of correct translation for each word in the text to the occurrence table, and adjusting the occurrence table based on the probability of correct translation for each word in the text.

- One example embodiment of communication processing system 108 is represented by the communication processing system 108 illustrated in FIG. 6 and described in detail below.
- Communications processing system 108 receives speech made up of sounds from audio source 102 , audio source 104 or recorder 109 , and proceeds to convert the speech to text. First, communication processing system 108 uses a phonetic module to convert the sounds into symbols corresponding to the sounds. Next, communication processing system 108 uses a language module and occurrence table to convert the symbols into text. In addition, communication processing system 108 determines a probable accuracy for each word translated. This probability may be based upon the words proceeding or following the selected word. Finally, communication processing system 108 compares the probable accuracies for each word translated with an occurrence table and adjusts the occurrence table as indicated by the probable accuracies for each word.
- the occurrence table may be based upon the occurrence of words in a test sample.
- test samples and occurrence tables corresponding to different dialects, languages, or regional slang.
- test samples and occurrence tables corresponding to different domains such as banking, law, commerce, phone centers, technical support lines, or the like.
- speech of a known dialect or domain is received, it is compared to a corresponding occurrence table, and the appropriate occurrence table is updated based upon the probable accuracy of the translation of the speech.
- the occurrence table for different dialects and domains are continually being updated as more speech is translated.
- FIG. 1 illustrates communication processing system 108 as a single device
- other embodiments may perform the functions of communication processing system 108 in a plurality of devices distributed throughout communication network 108 .
- separate devices may be provided for each different method of speech to text translation, and their resulting transcriptions may then be transmitted to communication processing system 108 for compilation into database 110 and for generation of a database index.
- Still other examples may provide for translation of the audio data to text within communication processing system 108 , while the function of creating the database index may actually be performed within database 110 .
- FIG. 1 is simply representative of one possible structure for performing the methods described here for indexing a database.
- communication processing system 108 receives audio data from audio sources 102 and 104 through communication network 106 .
- This audio data may utilize any of a wide variety of formats.
- the audio data may be recorded as .mp3 or .wav files or the like. Further, the audio data may include one or more conversations within a single data file or group of data files.
- the audio data may be translated from speech to text by other elements (not shown) within communication network 106 , and the translated text may then be provided to communication processing system 108 .
- Communication processing system 108 processes audio data received from audio sources 102 and 104 , producing an index of symbols found within the audio data. These symbols may include phonemes, words, phrases, or the like. The index of symbols may be stored in database 110 in some embodiments. Communication processing system 108 then processes the index of symbols searching for symbols that have a deviation in frequency of occurrence within a time period. This time period may be of any length. For example, communication processing system 108 may receive daily updates of audio data and search for symbols having a deviation in frequency of occurrence in comparison to the audio data received for the previous week. Other embodiments may use other periods of time in a similar method.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a method of performing speech to text translation in a speech analytics system 106 .
- Audio data containing speech made up of sounds is received from either audio source 102 or recorder 104 (operation 200 ).
- Speech analytics system 106 processes the sounds using a phonetic module producing symbols corresponding to the sounds (operation 202 ).
- Speech analytics system 106 then processes the symbols using a language module and occurrence table producing text (operation 204 ).
- Speech analytics system 106 determines a probability of correct translation for each word in the text (operation 206 ). This probability may be based in part or in whole on the words proceeding or following the selected word. Speech analytics system 106 compares the probability of correct translation for each word in the text to an appropriate occurrence table (operation 208 ). This occurrence table may be selected based upon a number of factors such as dialect or language of the speech, and the domain in which the speech was obtained.
- Speech analytics system 106 modifies the occurrence table based on the probability of correct translation for each word in the text (operation 210 ). This modification may simply change the occurrence probability by a fixed percentage, or by a variable percentage based on the probability of correct translation of the given word, or any other of a wide variety of methods for modification.

- structured speech may be identified.
- Structure speech may include IVR, scripts, and figures of speech.
- IVR this type of structured speech is repetitive.
- the communication processing system 108 can recognizing errors in a transcription by taking advantage of the repetitive nature of IVR speech.
- An IVR message may be, “Welcome to ABC Products customer service center. All of our representatives are busy assisting other customers.”
- a voicemail system prompt may be, “You have reached the voice mail box of Jane Doe, please leave your message after the tone.”
- Scripts are another type of structured speech, and are typically statements spoken by agents are, as required by law, certain situations (e.g., disclaimers), and in response to customer inquiries, etc.
- the scripts are spoken by many different agents with typically only minor modification and timing between the agents.
- An agent script may be, for example, “For security purposes can you please verify the last four digits of your social security number.” Scripts may have medium length sentences, but are repeated among conversations in the contact center.
- Figures of speech are small to medium-sized sentences that people tend to say even thought they are not written text read aloud.
- the figures of speech are typically common phrases, such as “Oh, my!” They occur with some repetition, but are typically shorter than scripts. Similar to a script, figures of speech tend to have some repetition among conversations in the contact center, but are typically shorter in length and of lower frequency.
- Free speech typically does not repeat among conversations.
- An example of free speech is, “Well, you see, first click on start.”
- the communication processing system 108 can make determinations of the type of speech by looking words within the transcript. For example, for IVR speech, if a predetermined number or percentage of words in an IVR recording are recognized (e.g., 9 out of 16), the communication processing system 108 can make a determination that a particular segment of the transcript is IVR speech. The communication processing system 108 may make a determination not to index each and every word of the recognized IVR speech.
- FIG. 3 illustrates a method of determining a type of speech in accordance with a structure.
- Audio data containing speech made up of sounds is received from either audio source 102 or recorder 104 (operation 300 ).
- Communication processing system 108 processes the sounds using a phonetic module producing symbols corresponding to the sounds (operation 302 ).
- Communication processing system 108 then processes the symbols using a language module and occurrence table producing text (operation 304 ).
- the communication processing system 108 can make analyze the text of the transcribed speech to make determinations of the type of speech (operation 306 ) by looking words within the transcript. For example, the communication processing system 108 may identify structured speech based upon repetitions. The communication processing system 108 may identify IVR speech based on durations and distributions. For example, FIG. 4A illustrates patterns of IVR speech. When a certain sentence, phrase, statement, etc. repeats over and over, it can be identified. As illustrated, phrases associated with IVR speech show little deviation. However, scripts spoken by agents may exhibit a higher degree of deviation, as shown in FIG. 4B . Thus, the two types of structured speech can be identified and separated.
- the communication processing system 108 may make a determination (operation 308 ) that a particular segment of the transcript is IVR speech based on the duration distribution of the particular segment. As such, the IVR speech can be separated (operation 310 ). For example, the segment, “All of our representatives are busy assisting other customers” can be identified as IVR speech.
- the communication processing system 108 may determine if a predetermined number of words in an IVR recording are recognized. In accordance with the determination, the communication processing system 108 may make a determination not to index each and every word of the recognized IVR speech.
- scripts spoken by agents can be identified by, e.g., examining a length of the phrase.
- scripts are read from text or are statements that agents are trained to say, (“A Federal Law and your decision will not affect your service”).
- figures of speech are customary statement (“Hello, how can I help you?”). Because figures of speech tend to be a few words, whereas the scripts tend to be longer sentences, a phrase can be categorized as a script (operation 312 ) or a figure of speech (operation 314 ). Thus, figures of speech can be separated out from scripts based on length.
- Those phrases that do not fall into the above structures are likely to be free speech (operation 316 ). Separating the structures may be useful, because for example, in scripts, the word “rebate” may have a different meaning than when it occurs in a figure of speech or free speech. Thus, as will be described below, when searching on the word “rebate,” a context (script, figure of speech, or free speech) may be included in the index and searched.
- agent compliance may be determined. For example, it may be determined which agents do or do not strictly adhere to scripts that include, e.g., disclaimers. Contacts may be reviewed that should include a script, but do not. Agents may be ranked based on their compliance to scripts. In addition, identifying scripts may be used to determine which agents are more or less polite that others. Politeness may be analyzed to determine if agents who are more polite helping with customer retention, sales, etc. Yet further, identifying scripts may determine if agents are attempting to up-sell, and what the characteristics of the calls are in which up-selling is performed.
- scores for a script can be determined by setting a minimum distance between the script and words in the contact.
- a script may be identified by looking for a word or group of words, a Boolean expression or weighting of words. Pattern matching may be performed if a number of errors are small. However, there is not a need to search each and every word in script for it to be correct. In some implementations, an order of the words may be used.
- a threshold number of mistakes may be set, e.g., 18 to identify a percentage of sentences as being the script.
- a higher recall and precision may be obtained because the script itself has a more accurate signature that looking for the each word by itself.
- the sequence and/or timing of the words can be used.
- scripts may be used as categories.
- the communication processing system 108 may identify the scripts and output a list.
- the communication processing system 108 may evaluate each contact for the scripts it contains (e.g., binary output).
- a user may use a “Script Definition Tool” (SDT) to assign a script with a name, color, impact, etc.
- SDT Script Definition Tool
- the user may assign the script with a type, such as a greeting, authentication, hold, transfer or closure. Additional types assigned can be legal, company policy, up-sale, politeness etc.
- Manual edit of scripts may be performed by the user who may edit the scripts list to focus on interesting scripts and perform “fine tuning.” Each script can be given a name, color, impact similarly to categories.
- the communication processing system 108 may utilize scripts similarly to categories. For example, scripts may be used as a filter in a query. Since the script is binary, a “NOT” operator can be used for checking compliance. Scripts may be displayed, and impact and relevance determined for a specific query. In a player application, scripts may be marked within a contact (see, e.g., FIG. 5A ).
- scripts may be identified as part of a quality management and scorecards.
- a supervisor may obtain a list of sentences that each of his/her agents tends to use. The supervisor may ascertain the greetings/closure each agent uses. The supervisor may determine an agents first call resolution capabilities.
- Scripts may be exported to database 110 .
- the scripts can be integrated with evaluation forms (QM) and Scorecards.
- QM evaluation forms
- Scorecards Scripts compliance can be used in QM as metrics for evaluations, and for training purposes.
- Script adherence reports may be generated to determine which agents exceptionally use certain scripts. The reports may also surface scripts that have exceptionally low or high compliance. For each agent, a graph of his/her compliance to various scripts may be generated, as well as an overall scripts compliance graph for all scripts.
- analytics may be performed to determine how the usage of an up-sale script contribute to sales (e.g., using meta data); whether agent politeness leads to better customer satisfaction (e.g., using categories); and whether a polite agent helps improve customer retention; whether complying to company policy has a positive effect on sales.
- Analytics may determine other aspects, such as what characterizes a specific agent group and what their common scripts are. In addition, it may be determined what characterizes good agents; and what are their common scripts (e.g., using QM data).
- FIG. 6 illustrates the communication processing system of FIG. 1 in greater detail.
- the communication processing system 108 may include communication interface 301 , user interface 302 , and processing system 303 .
- Processing system 303 is linked to communication interface 301 and user interface 302 .
- Processing system 303 includes processing circuitry 305 and memory device 306 that stores operating software 307 .
- Communication interface 301 includes components that communicate over communication links, such as network cards, ports, RF transceivers, processing circuitry and software, or some other communication devices. Communication interface 301 may be configured to communicate over metallic, wireless, or optical links. Communication interface 301 may be configured to use TDM, IP, Ethernet, optical networking, wireless protocols, communication signaling, or some other communication format—including combinations thereof. In this example, communication interface 301 is configured to receive audio data from recorder 104 or directly from audio source 102 .
